In this chapter, we will lay the foundation for the case studies in the subsequent chapters. To this end, we will make explicit our understanding of populism, which links the individual contexts discussed in the remainder of this book. In this book, we define populism as a political strategy and/or practice, realised in discourse, that is based on a dichotomy between "the people", who are unified

Acetylation is a wood modification used to increase the durability. Although it is known that the wood moisture content is lowered, the exact mechanisms behind the increased durability are not known. However, since fungi need water in different locations for different purposes the location and state of water is most probably of importance in addition to the total moisture content. In a previous st

The key message is the importance of a systemic approach to handling water and energy together, both in design and in oper-ation. The paper demonstrates how renewable energy, solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal, in combination with a small nutrient removal plant, provides a reliable solution for small-scale decentralized water recovery operations. The system is automated and can operate outs

CuInSe2 (CISe) quantum dots (QDs) have shown promising applications in photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells due to their nontoxicity, high extinction coefficient, and wide optical absorption range; however, their low PEC performance prevents their applications due to insufficient charge carrier separation and severe charge recombination. Herein, CISe/CuInS2 (CISe/CIS) core/shell structured QDs are des

This open access book introduces a groundbreaking concept - civil society elites - and serves as an essential resource for scholars, researchers and students interested in the complexities of power and influence within contemporary civil societies. Through a series of unique empirical studies, the authors offer a comprehensive examination of the individuals occupying the upper echelons of influent

Background Lifecycles of electronics are decreasing, whereas companies with long life product such as the automotive and defence industry is increasing electrification in their products. Consequently, the mismatch in lifecycles between the electronics industry and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), with long life products, requires a solid obsolescence management process, to mitigate and res

Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are know

Today’s digitalized society relies on the advancement of silicon (Si) Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology, but the limitations of down-scaling and the rapidly increasing demand for added functionality that is not easily achieved in Si, have pushed efforts to monolithically 3D-integrate III-V devices above the Si-CMOS technology. In addition, the demand for increased computati

Kriminalisering är en av samhällets mest ingripande åtgärder mot medborgar-na. Detta är utgångspunkten för Jareborgs principer för när kriminalisering bör ske. Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda och problematisera huruvida åtgärds-förslaget att kriminalisera deltagande i ett kriminellt gäng är förenligt med Ja-reborgs principer och de lagstadgade krav som finns på straffbestämmelsens utformning. ViThe act of criminalization represents a significant intervention by society against its citizens. Jareborg's principles serve as the foundation for determin-ing when such measures should be employed. This essay aims to investigate whether the proposal to criminalize participation in criminal gangs aligns with Jareborg's principles and statutory requirements. According to Jareborg, law-make

Frågeställningen för denna uppsats har varit: ”hur har världsarvskonventionens klassificering av viss kulturegendom som världsarv påverkat bedömningen av individers folkrättsliga straffansvar för attacker mot sådan kulturegendom i samband med väpnade konflikter?”. Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att illustrera världsarvsklassificeringens påverkan på den internationella straffrätten. Mer specifiThe question for this paper has been: "how has the World Heritage Convention's classification of certain cultural property as world heritage affected the assessment of individuals' criminal liability under international law for attacks against such cultural property within armed conflicts?". The purpose of this paper has been to illustrate the impact of the World Heritage classif

Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda huruvida plattformsarbetare omfattas av det utvidgade arbetstagarbegreppet i 6 kap. 5 § 3 skadeståndslagen (1972:207) i förhållande till arbetsgivarens principalansvar. Utredningen grundar sig i en rättsdogmatisk metod tillsammans med ett kritiskt och rättsekonomiskt perspektiv. GIG-tjänster eller plattformsföretag skapar flexibla arbetsformer, nya inkomstkällor The essay aims to investigate whether platform workers fall under the extended concept of an employee in Chapter 6, Section 5, Subsection 3 of the Swedish Compensation Act (Skadeståndslagen 1972:207) in relation to the employer's vicarious liability. The methodology employed in this essay is rooted in a legal doctrinal method, complemented by a critical and a legaleconomic perspective. GIG-ec

Aldrig före 2022 har demonstranter dömts för sabotage, trots att bestämmel-sen har funnits sedan 1948. Att straffansvar för sabotage nu dömts ut mot aktivister har väckt debatt om hur lagstiftningen egentligen ska tillämpas. Även ett konstitutionellt perspektiv aktualiseras, eftersom domstolen tillämpar strafflagstiftningen på en situation där den tilltalade utövar sin grundlagsskyd-dade demonstraPrior to 2022, protesters had never faced convictions for sabotage, despite the provision existing since 1948. The imposition of criminal liability for sabotage on activists has sparked a debate on how the legislation should be applied. A constitutional perspective is also highlighted, as the court applies criminal law to a situation where the defendant is exercising their constitutionally protect
